Assign a manager to a vOU
Assigning a manager to a virtual organizational unit is straight forward. This configuration policy allows administrators to automatically assign managers to particular users who may be within a certain department or geographical location. Check out this video below for a walk through.
Set a user's usage location and country details
Setting a user's location settings is a straightforward process with Nova. Setting a configuration policy allows you to instantly change a user's usage location and country settings when placed within a virtual organizational unit. See how to do that here.
You are able to add actions to Microsoft Intune configuration policies to your user's mobile devices. For DPC users, this is helpful if you need to modify devices and applications of users you are allowed to manage. The devices screen can be found within the Nova Dashboard by clicking Manage, then Devices.
Actions include:
·Refresh: this refreshes the list of devices in the tenant.
·Retire: if the device is no longer in use, you can retire it.
·Wipe: you can remote wipe devices immediately.
·Remote Lock: you can remotely lock devices immediately.
·Sync: Sync your device to get its most up to date information.
·Reboot: instantly reboot a device.
To show more details for your device, click on its name. Here, you will find several more tabs, including:
·Detail: this gives additional information of the device, including manufacturer, model, last sync date type and encryption state.
·Owner: this gives detail on the owner of the device, including email and the tenant the user is in.
·Users: this includes a list of users assigned to the device.
·Group Membership: if the device is part of a group, they will be listed here.
Also on this Device Detail page, you have the opportunity to remove the passcode (for iOS), and reset passcode (Android 7+ versions only).
License Policies in Nova give an administrator (or delegated administrator) the ability to assign/remove licenses, as needed, all from within Nova. Plus, Nova gives visibility into exactly how many licenses are used and how many are available.
The Nova license policies and reports provide:
·The ability to apply licenses according to what has been budgeted and what is required for a specific role
·The ability to show and hide particular licenses to include (or exclude) them from the report page shown above.
·Accurate license intelligence when it comes time for budgeting and Microsoft 365 renewal.
·Delegated license management activities
Similar to other Nova policies, with a license policy you specify who can assign what licenses within a tenant or group. For example, a license policy might enable the Director of Engineering to manage Azure DevOps licenses assigned to users within the Engineering virtual organizational unit.
You can get really granular and specify which workloads from a license you want users to get. For example, if your organization does not use Yammer, you can remove that workload, if desired, before assigning an E5 license to someone. You can also specify how many of a particular license delegated administrators can assign.
To set up a license policy
1.In Nova, go to Manage administration > License policies.
2.Click Add.
3.Enter a Name for the policy.
4.In the Assignment section, with the Delegate to tab selected, click Add.
5.Select user(s) to whom you will delegate the ability to assign licenses according to the policy, and then click Add.
6.Select the Managed objects tab, and then click Add.
7.Use the Select type drop-down menu to choose whether the licenses can be applied to certain users, groups, and/or organizational units.
8.Locate any users/groups/organizational units containing users to which the licenses can be assigned, select them, and click Add.
9.Select the Licenses tab, and then click Add.
10.Select the tenant containing licenses you will add to the policy.
11.Select the licenses (and specify the maximum number of licenses) and workloads you want those delegated the policy to be able to assign, and then click Add.
After completing these steps, your policy is configured and the user(s) who are delegated the license policy can assign licenses to users specified in the policy.
To hide licenses
You can hide selected licenses from the licenses report, if desired, by clicking the Hide Licenses button.
